What does B & S stand for?

I've been reading some interesting posts about German tuba manufacturers and some history about them. One curiosity that I haven't seen mentioned is what "B & S" actually stands for. I play a B & S PT-20P and love it. I'm excited to play some more B & S horns, as well as others, at ITEC in a couple of weeks.
